DIFFERENTIAL VALIDATION:
Validation of test at different score levels for different classes of people. This is not tantamount to "lowering standards" for one or more groups to favor them over others. Differential validation occurs only where lower test scores by one class actually do predict a level of job performance equivalent to that predicted by the higher scores of another class.
